Table 4. Statistical significance of the p values and associations observed between markers and chemical traits in 98 almond cultivars.

For multiple testing of genotypes, Bonferroni correction [29] was applied. The p values for associations are considered when at least one allele is associated with the SSR.

*p<0.00001

**p = 0.00001–0.0001

***p = 0.0001–0.0012, (K-model)

(a)Associations observed in the same regions where QTLs had previously been identified [3, 30]
